Subject: [Qemu-devel] [PATCH 2/2] do not issue ioctl from within the io thread
Date: Tue, 25 Aug 2009 18:13:36 -0400	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <1251238416-5088-3-git-send-email-glommer@redhat.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <1251238416-5088-2-git-send-email-glommer@redhat.com>

According to Documentation/kvm/api.txt, (and well, to common sense),
we should not be calling vcpu ioctls from within the iothread.
Since vcpu initialization issues a vcpu ioctl, move it a little bit
further in time to prevent it.
